Backbone and side-chain NMR assignments for the bromodomain of mouse BAZ1A (ACF1).

BAZ1A, a non-catalytic subunit of the chromatin remodeler complexes ACF and CHRAC, is thought to modulate the ATPase's activity of the complexes and participate in gene transcription, DNA damage checkpoint and double-strand break repair. Recently, the essential role of BAZ1A in mouse male fertility has also been reported. BAZ1A contains one C-terminal bromodomain, which specifically recognizes acetylation of lysine. Here, we report the backbone and side chain (1)H, (13)C and (15)N resonance assignment of the mouse BAZ1A-bromodomain, as a basis for further functional studies and structure determination.
